<p>The expand method is the same with ExpandConvLayer, but saved the transposed
value. After expanding, output.sequenceStartPositions will store timeline.
The number of time steps are outputH * outputW and the dimension of each
time step is block_y * block_x * channel. This layer can be used after
convolution neural network, and before recurrent neural network.</p>
